Finally Fall

It's finally fall! Well, it seems to be for the time being here in NC. It seems like the weather is just so crazy sometimes that one day we are in the 90's and the the next the 70's. It seems like for now and we are in the low 70's and we are having those cool mornings and evenings. Fall seems to be the time when we do a lot of family activities together. We enjoy going to the farmers market, pumpkin patch and this past weekend, the zoo! The temperature was just right and the kids had a blast! So tell me, how do you spend your fall days?

Amy's Oranges

I created this bright and seasonal Etsy treasury with my favorite fabric designer, Amy Butler, in mind. Check out these beautiful handmade items!

Reidsville Downtown Fall Festival

Hey all you locals out there! Got plans next weekend? If not, come out and visit me at the 19th annual Reidsville Fall Festival. There will be food, fun, a car show, and most importantly, arts and crafts! Look forward to seeing you there!

What I've been up to...

These past few weekends have been filled with fun fall craft fairs! I've spend my weekdays creating new items to fill up my booth and the weekends selling my wares. I took this weekend off for my birthday and to have a little more time to make some new items.

And I even created something fun for my booth! A fun, colorful banner! It's cute and it makes my booth stand out from all the rest! Whenever I get some spare time (what is that?) I intend on making some smaller banners for the front of my tables.




I got this great idea from on of my favorite blogs, Craft + Show Designs. I seriously visit this blog weekly even though it isn't updated that often. It's a great blog to check out if you are looking for new display ideas or are a new craft fair person.









And next weekend I'll be back at it again at another fun fall festival! Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

First Day of Kindergarten

My oldest just started school this past Wednesday. I can't believe he is all grown up. It seems like yesterday he was just learning to walk. Now he is going to "big" school as he calls it. His first day went great. He is a picture I took of him in his classroom.



Speaking of school, here is one of those lunch bags I was talking about the other day. I still have 2 available in my Etsy shop. You can find them here. I'd also be happy to make customs as well.

Summer's Almost Over

I can't believe how quickly this summer has flown by! It's going on the end of August and my baby is getting ready to start kindergarten in just one week. I'm excited and sad at the same time. LOL.

Speaking of school, has anyone thought about school lunches? I'm sewing like crazy and getting ready to stock a bunch of reusable sandwich and snack bags. I'm also coming out with a new product, lunch bags! Customers have been asking for these for the last couple years and I've finally got a pattern I'm happy with and ready to start selling them! Look for these new items at my Hyenacart stocking on Sunday at 2pm and shortly to follow in my Etsy shop!

Wedding

Long time no blog but I'm back and plan to keep up with the blogging now.



Scott and I got married on December 12th and it was beautiful and everything turned out great. It was so cold that day but so pretty outside. We got married by the lake where we spend lots of time at each summer. Here are a couple of my favorite pictures.
